Chapter 202: Joined the Sect for 2 Months and the Undying Sect is Destroyed

Translator: yikaii Editor: yikaii

When the sect leader saw Yun Zhi emerge from Lu Yang, his heart chilled significantly.

Initially, he thought perhaps Everlasting Celestial had successfully possessed Lu Yang, and that recent behaviors were all an act. Now, it seemed Everlasting Celestial was also doomed.

“So it turns out that you, along with Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone, are all from the Dao Seeking Sect!” The sect leader was a clever man, and he quickly understood the whole situation.

It wasn’t that he had sent Lu Yang and the other two to infiltrate the Dao Seeking Sect, but rather that the Dao Seeking Sect had sent them to infiltrate the Undying Sect! Despicable Dao Seeking Sect!

He stared intently at Lu Yang. To think that as a righteous sect, they could masquerade so convincingly as demonic cultists, without a single flaw in their demeanor. How cunning!

Ming Song waved his hand, ordering that the sect leader be taken away.

“This operation was successful thanks to the intelligence provided by Daoist Yun Zhi. Otherwise, who knows when the Undying Sect would have been caught. I will suggest to His Majesty upon my return that we reward Daoist Yun Zhi.”

“A small effort; the real hard work was yours. I didn’t contribute much, so please, let’s not talk of rewards,” Yun Zhi said, her tone light.

She then added, “You don’t need to report to Emperor Xia; I will be visiting him shortly myself.”

Seeing Yun Zhi’s firm attitude, Ming Song did not insist further. He bowed to everyone and said, “Now that the headquarters are captured, we need to act quickly to locate all the branches and try to completely eradicate the Undying Sect. Time is of the essence; if the branches get wind of this, it could spell trouble. I must take my leave first!”

Ming Song hurried off to continue dealing with the Undying Sect, while Yun Zhi didn’t say much more. She then pulled Everlasting Celestial aside, making him quite nervous, thinking Yun Zhi might have second thoughts.

“You are an important witness; come with me to see Emperor Xia and the leaders of the other four great immortal sects.” Explaining the situation of the Undying Sect would be easiest by bringing Everlasting Celestial along. Everlasting Celestial breathed a sigh of relief; as long as he wasn’t being refined, all was well.

He had heard from Lu Yang in the mental space that the Dao Seeking Sect had a tradition of refining powerful souls into Spiritual Treasures. This sounded less and less like the actions of a righteous path.

Everlasting Celestial doubted the reliability of his followers’ memories. Weren’t the Five Great Immortal Sects supposed to advance together, defending the righteous path?

“You, Meng Jingzhou, and Barbarian Bone go back first; Dai Bufan is waiting for you outside,” Yun Zhi left these words and carried Everlasting Celestial away as if he were a little chick.

Lu Yang met up with Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone. Meng Jingzhou said cheerfully, “We finally settled the Undying Sect, another great achievement!”

Barbarian Bone hesitantly added, “Did we move too quickly? We’ve only been in the Undying Sect for less than two months, and it’s already been taken down.”

The Undying Sect had existed for fourteen thousand years, a major scourge. How could it be that as soon as Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou joined, the sect was wiped out?

Even if they were defending the righteous path, this efficiency seemed too high.

Lu Yang seriously said, “Barbarian Bone, you need to understand something. Did we destroy the Undying Sect? No, of course not!”

“Everything today is the retribution for the evil deeds of the Undying Sect; we merely made an insignificant contribution.”

Meng Jingzhou nodded vigorously; Undying Sect invited them in without knowing who they really were, so how was it their fault? Barbarian Bone had an epiphany: “I’ve learned something today.”

The three of them left headquarters laughing, and indeed, Dai Bufan was waiting for them.

“Are you out? You three did well!” Dai Bufan said cheerfully, patting each of them on the shoulder, clearly very pleased.

One less demonic cult meant one less major concern for him, allowing him some relief.

Dai Bufan casually plucked a leaf from a tree, and with some technique, the leaf grew as large as a small boat. “Come aboard.”

Using the green leaf as a flying vessel, Dai Bufan transported the three back to the Dao Seeking Sect.

Lu Yang shivered as he looked down, feeling like he could fall at any moment. Dai Bufan saw this and laughed heartily: “Lu Yang, you’re afraid of heights? How will you ever be a sword cultivator?”

Back at the mission hall, Dai Bufan and the three calculated the rewards for this mission.

“Eldest Senior Sister told me before she left that although the maximum reward for a Foundation Building mission is one thousand contribution points, due to your significant roles in eradicating the Undying Sect, each of you will receive an exceptional reward.”

“Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone, you two get two thousand contribution points each.”

“Lu Yang, since you contributed the most in the Undying Sect competition, you get two thousand five hundred contribution points.”

With the contribution points they still had left from last time, and now receiving so many more, the three were very pleased. Among those at the Foundation Building stage, they had the most contribution points!

“Dai Brother, do you think this sword can be exchanged for contribution points?” Lu Yang pulled out a demonic sword, asking Dai Bufan to appraise it.

Dai Bufan examined the demonic sword, flicked it lightly, and listened to the vibration of the sword: “This is indeed a rare good sword, aren’t you keeping it for yourself?”

“Oh right, you have the Qingfeng Sword given to you by Eldest Senior Sister, you don’t need this demonic sword.”

“The material of this sword is good, but the forging method is poor, and the excessive killing has imbued it with karmic forces and corrupted blood, damaging the original properties of the material. I’ll give you seventeen hundred contribution points for it.”

After settling their respective contribution points, everything was thoroughly concluded. The three yawned continuously, exhausted from the effort and stress of the operation, both physically and mentally.

“Let’s go back and sleep, we can talk about exchanging the rewards tomorrow.” Meng Jingzhou yawned so much he could barely keep his eyes open.

Barbarian Bone was so tired he almost collapsed right there and then.

Lu Yang wasn’t much better off; the battle had taken place in the mental space, which had drained him the most. However, his lack of focus was due to another reason.

“Why don’t I have any contribution points! It must be that girl Yun Zhi afraid of letting me become the sect leader again!” Everlasting Fairy was making a racket in the mental space.

“Fairy, can you keep quiet for a bit, I need to sleep.” Back in his cave, Lu Yang mumbled sleepily. Everlasting Fairy quieted down and stayed still in the mental space, ceasing her complaints and chatter.

After the three left, Dai Bufan looked over the demonic sword, unsure of how to deal with it. “Forget it, I’ll just store it in the warehouse for now, and ask the Five Elders later.” Dai Bufan casually carried the demonic sword and placed it in a corner of the warehouse.

The warehouse was pitch dark, with only the faint silhouettes of various Spiritual Treasures visible. The demonic sword emitted a sinister aura, starkly conspicuous.

No matter where it was, the demonic sword was domineering, its dark red glow proclaiming it the boss of the warehouse, ready to sever anything that defied it.

A treasure lamp floated in the air, emitting the aura of a superior Spiritual Treasure, enveloping the demonic sword. A jade ruyi lit up with a blue light, covering the demonic sword. (TL Note: A ruyi (Chinese: 如意; lit. ‘as desired’, ‘as [you] wish’) is a Chinese curved decorative object that serves as either a ceremonial scepter in Chinese Buddhism or a talisman symbolizing power and good fortune in Chinese folklore. The “ruyi” image frequently appears as a motif in Asian art.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruyi_(scepter) )

A paper fan opened with a swish, gently fanning the air.

Scythes, brushes, gourds, chess boards… all sorts of Spiritual Treasures seemed to come to life, gathering around the demonic sword.

The demonic sword trembled and took the initiative to withdraw its ominous aura. Making it look harmless to humans and animals.

What kind of place is this? It’s so scary.
